Our school counselors focus on academic, career, and personal development to ensure that every student benefits from a program that is comprehensive in scope, preventative in design, and developmental in nature. 

Here you will find helpful school counseling resources for your Valley View student and your family!

Hello! My name is Taylor Cooley and I am the new School Counselor here at Valley View Elementary. This is my first year with Berkeley County Schools as well as being my first year as a School Counselor.

I am very excited to be starting my counseling career and work with all of our wonderful students here. Being able to make a difference in my students' lives, along with empowering them to reach their fullest potential is what I strive for everyday with our students.

If there is ever anything you need for your student, please know I am always here and happy to help. Communication with parents is my number one priority, and I look forward to working with not only you, but your student as well for a successful school year!
